Child Has Rash On Bottom. Diagnosed As Strep And Gave Antibiotic. No Fever. Solution?

my 6 year old son has a rash on his bottom. I took him to the Dr about 2 week ago and they diagnose him with strep and prescribed an antibiotic. I worked for a week but now it is back! could it be something else? No fever or other symptoms. I have used diaper cream with zinc the last two days, still not better. Any ideas?
